The Printed Textiles: British and American Cottons and Linens, 1700–1850 Book by Linda Eaton from Hachette. Printed Textiles is a major update to the classic text published by Winterthur in 1970 - a sourcebook compiled by celebrated curator Florence Montgomery that detailed all aspects of the fabrics’ lifespan, from their design and method of manufacture to their use and exchange value. Linda Eaton, Director of Collections and Senior Curator of Textiles, updates the classic with a particular focus on furnishing fabrics - referred to as “furnitures." With hundreds of beautifully photographed samples - engagingly contextualized with iconic figures in American history including Betsy Ross and Benjamin Franklin - this significant addition to textile scholarship allows for a full appreciation of these fascinating fabrics. Printed Textiles is destined to become an essential reference for interior designers, fashion and textile design students, conservators, collectors, and anyone with an interest in the textile industry.
